This whole 'Internet Thing' is a one of the wonders of the modern world.
A public transport system that has handled growth easily and
efficiently for many years. Some people get leisure from it, some make
money from it, some do research on it, some communicate on it,.... It
is one of the most pervasive things I've seen.
Because of the internet's inherent distributed nature, legislation will
get you no where, and besides,l legislation is the easy way out, and not
very effective at that. Market forces and the golden rule (if that
combo actually works, I'd be amazed) should drive the direction of this
dynamic animal we call 'The Internet'.
If we lived in Nirvana, the Internet would be a beautiful thing. But as
we live in reality, we have to take the good with the bad. But overall,
I think the Good is winning over the Bad.
I say: Cool.
